EtherChannel

Good Morning,
I have a P52A that we setup etherchannel on to 2 cisco's. It is setup as
primary and backup. everything works great till reboot, when the system
comes up we have to reset the primary network cable so the network comes
up. Has anyone else had this issue? What is the best way to setup an
etherchannel? We are using AIX 5.3 TL4 here is the setup of the
etherchannel:


Change / Show Characteristics of an EtherChannel / Link Aggregation

Press Enter AFTER making all desired changes.
